Luan's return today

Chapter 55 Is the natural disaster man-made?
One of them was a little more courageous, and smiled flatteringly, "My lord, we are all honest and responsible people, and we haven't done anything wrong."

As soon as Jiang Yue heard it, she knew that they were thinking wrong, and explained, "You are thinking too much, I came here this time to ask for your help."

"what?"

A few people were shocked and looked up at Jiang Yue. They really didn't expect Jiang Yue to need their help.

Hearing Jiang Yue repeating it again, several people believed it, and said repeatedly, "Your Excellency, just tell me if you have something to do."

"You should be sincere when asking for help." Jiang Yue smiled and said, "I think you all saw Li Xing checking the health of the people at the gate of the government office."

Seeing them nodding their heads, she continued, "But there are so many people in the city, we don't have enough manpower, so I would like to ask you for help."

Several people looked at each other, "Just feel the pulse?"

Jiang Yue nodded and repeated, "Just feel the pulse."

Feeling the pulse is their housekeeping skill, and seeing that there is no other request, they happily agreed.

At this time Jiang Yue went out with them, and saw a long queue at the entrance of the government office, she asked the office staff to move out a few more tables and put them next to Li Xing.

"Don't worry everyone, everyone will have a chance. I think everyone knows these four, and they can also feel the pulse of everyone in the future."

The people in Jiangnan listened to Jiang Yue as if they were reborn parents, and their eyes were full of gratitude. If Jiang Yue wanted them to go east at this time, they would never go west.

Jiang Yue nodded slightly towards the four doctors, and ordered people to invite Li Fang and Xu Wen, and together they headed towards Suihe, the source of the flood.

Standing at the embankment, Jiang Yue saw that the water in the river was still turbulent, and the embankments on both sides were very low. She raised her head again and looked around. Jiangnan was located in a depression, forming an encircling basin structure with the surrounding area.

Looking at it this way, she also understood why Jiangnan was flooded every year.

Because when it rains, the water potential of Suihe will rise, so that it bursts out of the river and overflows into the city. The surrounding terrain is too low, and if there is water, it will inevitably flow down into the south of the Yangtze River.

But the situation is not without its benefits.

Due to the abundance of rain, the waters and food products in the south of the Yangtze River are also very developed, so that it has won the title of a land of fish and rice.

The four seasons in the south of the Yangtze River are not particularly distinct, and the skin of women is much better than that in the capital.

Even after half a month of raising them after this catastrophe, you can still see their rosy complexions, which can be broken by blowing bullets.

No wonder Jiangnan is also nicknamed "Little Man Waist", because all generations of emperors like to come to Jiangnan to choose their concubines.

Due to various reasons, the people in Jiangnan are very prosperous.

However, this year's floods are particularly severe because of the heavy rain this year, which lasted for several months.

Jiang Yue reached into the water and touched it, and she could touch the river bed, and her hands were even more muddy.

She frowned. Logically speaking, Suihe shouldn't have such a high river bed in a place where it rains all the year round?
Then her eyes followed the source of Suihe River, and there was a high mountain there, Jiang Yue pointed and asked, "Have you ever been to that mountain?"

Xu Wen and Li Fang shook their heads, "When we came to Jiangnan, it was the time when the rain was at its heaviest, and the rain in the city had already overflowed the waistline, so we didn't dare to go out at all."

They felt guilty when they thought that they had done nothing in the south of the Yangtze River for several months, and saw Jiang Yue's series of actions this time.

Jiang Yue was silent, and walked up the mountain, "Let's go up and have a look."

Xu Wen and Li Fang hurriedly followed.

The ground was slippery after the rain. Jiang Yue was a martial arts practitioner, and her steps were more solid. However, Xu Wen and Li Fangke suffered a lot, slipping and falling over and over again.

Jiang Yue couldn't see how long they would be able to reach the top of the mountain like them, so she said, "Wait for me here!"

Before they could answer, they went straight up the mountain, leaving Li Fang and Xu Wen looking at each other.

When Li Fang heard this, he was already tired, so he sat on the floor and said to Xu Wen, "You sit too."

Xu Wen stared at Jiang Yue's back, and gave Li Fang a blank look, "Your Excellency is just being polite and dislikes us for dragging our feet. Are you really waiting here?"

After speaking, he found two wooden sticks beside him, threw one in front of Li Fang, took one as a crutch, and climbed up the mountain step by step.

Seeing that Xu Wen was already walking away, Li Fang quickly got up after resting, picked up the wooden stick and climbed up, thinking: I am afraid I will lose half my life if I go back today.

On the top of the mountain, Jiang Yue stood at the peak, frowned when she saw the bare area.

She looked down at the broken ends of the trees, which were smooth and slightly brighter, obviously not long ago.

Who would come to the south of the Yangtze River to cut trees on purpose, and as if to hide it from others, only one layer was left on the outside.

"My lord, have you found anything?"

A male voice appeared behind her, and when Jiang Yue turned her head, she saw Xu Wen standing there panting, with trembling legs, she was continuously surprised.

"Didn't I tell you to wait below?"

"My lords have come up, how can we just wait below." Xu Wen smiled, then looked around, and let out a sigh, "Why is the top of the mountain like this?"

"You found it too?"

Jiang Yue felt very relieved, no matter whether Xu Wen wanted to curry favor with him or he had the people in his heart, his being able to come up proved that he cared about flood control, and he could tell him anything in the future.

Xu Wen stepped forward and wiped the broken part of the tree with his hands, "Well, the trees on the top of the mountain should be the most lush in all places, it shouldn't be like this, if it's really for profit, why would such a circle be left in vain."

Jiang Yue nodded, knowing that this matter is not simple, "What about the people at the foot of the mountain?"

Xu Wen replied, "When we came, the foot of the mountain was already flooded, and the people here didn't know whether they were dead or alive. You have to go back and check your household registration to find out."

Jiang Yue nodded, and headed towards several other hills. The situation on the hills was mostly the same. Obviously, this was planned for a long time.

There are no trees on the mountain, and soil erosion is serious. No wonder the flood is turbid, the river bed is raised, the water storage capacity is reduced, and it is easier for the flood to overflow the river embankment.

Did someone deliberately create a natural disaster?What is their purpose?
Jiang Yue thought to herself, walking all the way down the mountain, Xu Wen and Li Fang also followed behind, seeing Jiang Yue's solemn expression, they were also silent all the way.

After returning to the government office, Xu Wen went to check the people at the foot of the mountain and there were still survivors, and Jiang Yue was wondering who the mastermind of all this would be?
Suddenly Ming Yu rushed in excitedly, "General, Li Yuan and the others are coming back, and they will be there in a day."

Jiang Yue's expression brightened, "I'm so happy to see you, but what's the good news?"

Mingyu grinned, "Anyway, it's definitely great news for the general, and we'll know when he arrives!"

"But." Mingyu deliberately paused, seeing that Jiang Yue's interest had been aroused, and then said, "There is a small good thing, I can let the general have fun first."

Jiang Yue raised her eyebrows and looked at Mingyu.

Ming Yu said quietly, "The people in the city are full of praise for the general, and they are better than the emperor."

After Mingyu finished speaking, he looked at Jiang Yue, only to see that her face was not happy, but pale.
